All requests above between April 2011 and January 2015;

Your application concerns a very large number of documents, which need to
be retrieved from the archives services. Such a detailed analysis cannot
be carried out within the normal time limits set out in Article 7 of
Regulation 1049/2001.

However, the Regulation also provides for a possibility to confer with
applicants in order to find a fair solution when an application concerns a
very large number of documents. Article 6(3) provides that "in the event
of an application relating to a very long document or to very large number
of documents, the institution concerned may confer with the applicant
informally, with a view to finding a fair solution".

Based on this provision, we would kindly ask you whether you could narrow
down the scope of your request, so as to reduce it to a more manageable
amount of documents. If that is not possible and if you maintain your
request for access to all documents concerned by your application, we
propose to handle your application in successive stages. If you accept
this proposal, you could indicate an order of priority, which we will
follow as much as possible in handling your application. You will receive,
at regular intervals, batches of documents which have been cleared for
release or a reasoned reply explaining why some documents cannot be
disclosed. Needless to say, we will endeavor to finalize the handling of
your application for access to documents as promptly as possible.

If you have any questions concerning this proposal, you can contact us by
email at the following address: [1][email address]

Thank you in advance for your kind understanding.

Yours faithfully,

Access to Documents team

Your applications are currently being handled. However, we will not be in
a position to complete the handling of your applications within the time

public access to documents. The new time limit expires on 18/03/2015.
